Display advertising

Display advertising uses targeted banners, rich media, and focused messaging to drive marketing goals from awareness to purchase. A demand-side platform (DSP) can help you manage campaigns, extend reach, and lead users through the purchase funnel with prospecting and retargeting display strategies.

Display advertising FAQ.

Is it true that we get the best access to inventory by using channel-specific platforms?

Not necessarily. Fully integrated DSPs can connect inventory seamlessly. For example, Adobe Advertising Cloud has access to all the major ad exchanges as well as to 100+ premium publishers.

Is it possible to use data from partners and third parties to help refine our display targeting and retargeting?

Yes. A marketing platform such as Adobe Experience Cloud provides analytics from first-, second-, and third-party data sources, so you can target ads using a holistic, 360-degree customer view.

Should I use a global data management platform?

Accessing available inventory in different regions requires servers located near markets where you’ll be bidding. If you’re looking to reach a widely distributed audience, then a global data management platform would work. However, smaller, regional hubs can be effective if you’re targeting distinct populations.

Can we get a complete view of ad inventory across TV, video, social, and other channels?

Yes! Adobe has the only leading advertising solution that can access full inventory on all paid advertising channels.

Can I control inventory quality before we bid?

Yes, with a solution such as Adobe Advertising Cloud. Our media-quality intelligence integrations provide pre-bid targeting capabilities that allow you to better manage the impressions you buy.

Can we report return-on-ad-spend with Adobe Advertising Cloud?

Yes. You can report and optimize towards return-on-ad-spend and cost-per-acquisition for both single conversion events and weighted conversion objectives.
